Joanne was born June 14, 1943 to William and Blanche Marshall of Smith’s Parish Bermuda. If you knew Joanne then you knew two things about her, that she loved you and that she loved the Lord Jesus Christ. Her life was filled with spending time with family and friends. She loved her church family and spending time in fellowship with them brought her great joy. Joanne was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, daughter, sister, aunt and friend. She loved her family with a passion and treated everyone she came in contact with as a family member. If you knew Joanne then you experienced her many hugs and kisses and were known by her endearments of “Honey”,’ Sweetie”, and “Darling”. She loved life and she loved people. She demonstrated the Love of Christ in all she did. Joanne’s work as an office manager allowed her to share her love and compassion to the many patients that she came to know. She worked at Dr. Frank Jayakody Medical Practice in Shelbyville, TN for over 20 years.
